I just read in my local paper that a pit bull attacked and killed a poodle on Friday. It broke into the screened in porch where the dog was. There was a 2 yr. old playing on the porch, but fortunately the dog was subdued before it attacked the child. There is so much publicity right now surrounding these attacks and people's nerves are on edge. They closed the article in the paper by saying "unfortunately these dogs continue to wind up in the hands of those least able to know what to do with them." Some cities have enacted legislation about owning them. What a dilemma.
